Surgery in the Area of Teeth and Jaws

Oral, maxillofacial, and facial surgery also deals with all dental-surgical procedures in the area of the teeth, jaws, and other structures of the oral cavity.

Among the most common procedures are the surgical removal of wisdom teeth and the surgical treatment of root-filled teeth in the form of a root resection.

If operations are classified as difficult or carry particular risks for example in the case of cardiovascular or metabolic diseases a referral to our specialist practice for oral, maxillofacial, and facial surgery is often made.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why am I being referred to an OMF practice for a tooth extraction?
In the case of brittle roots, impacted teeth or teeth lying deep beneath the gum, as well as increased medical risk, treatment is often referred to a specialist practice for oral, maxillofacial, and facial surgery.
Is a surgical tooth extraction painful?
In most cases, the procedure is performed under local anesthesia and is pain-free for you.
When is a root resection necessary?
If inflammation persists despite root canal treatment, a root resection can still preserve the affected tooth.
Will I be referred back to my dentist after treatment?
Yes, consistently referring you back to your treating dentist after treatment is complete is a matter of course for us.
